Creamy Citrus Mango Sauce: Too Good Not to Highlight

I published this recipe a few days ago as part of the lobster salad post but it’s too good not to highlight on its own. It's too good to let it get lost in the archives.

Dressing or Sauce

The inspiration for this recipe came from a lobster salad we enjoyed at the Montage resort in Laguna Beach. The restaurant was nice enough to tell me what was in it so I took notes and came up with my own recipe. While I used for the lobster salad recipe (photo above), I quickly discovered that it works great over grilled fish, shrimp, boneless, and skinless chicken breasts. I even used it for this grilled scallops wrapped in Prosciutto recipe.

It's so easy to make. Just dump everything into the blender and puree! Creamy citrus mango sauce lasts for five days in the fridge so extra does not go to waste.
